Synthesizer Starter Workshop for Women and non-binary people

Synthesizer Starter Workshop for Women and non-binary people

The Synth Library in partnership with 4MS brings you an hour of Intro to Patching led by all the female Synth Library team. First we will lead a discussion and exploration of a simple patch and give you some vocabulary to explore synthesis. After that we will see the incredible range of options a modular synth present us, and look at some patches where we don't even use an oscillator! Workshops led by Alissa DeRubeis, Mary C, Nikol Strobach, and Coast2c.
